BEARS, BILLS MAKE TRADE

The Chicago Bears acquired offensive lineman Ryan Bates from the Buffalo Bills for a fifth-round draft pick in 2024 (No. 143 overall).

What does it give the Chicago Bears
The Bears have Nate Moore and Teven Jenkins as their starting offensive guards, so Bates could become the team's new starting center.

What does it give the Buffalo Bills
The Bills had a luxury in Bates, who was a key reserve for them most of the time. So, they traded him to the Bears in exchange for a fifth-rounder.
